My baby is just 1 month old and I was diagnosed with 3 gallstones, the largest being 9mm, causing severe pain under my ribs. The doctor recommended cholecystectomy right away. I'm wondering how long I should wait after gallbladder surgery before getting a tubectomy done

I was recently diagnosed with fibroadenoma and the scan showed multiple lumps. My doctor recommended surgery right away but I'm unsure and wanted to get another opinion. Are there other treatment options or should I really consider surgery this soon?

Multiple fibroadenomas may not always require immediate surgery. A second opinion and regular monitoring are often advised unless there's suspicion of malignancy or rapid growth.
